About Vega

The $250B insurance claims industry runs on fax machines, phone tag, and adjusters buried in paperwork. Cycle times stretch for months. Data is locked in legacy systems. And the workforce is aging out faster than it's being replaced.

Vega is the premier AI-native claims TPA built to replace that entire stack. Our team is equal parts experienced insurance operators and modern technologists. We care deeply about delivering superior outcomes for our clients, and we want builders that get their hands dirty shipping solutions that move the needle.

Our results: 10x YoY revenue growth, and on track for $XXM run-rate in under 2 years. Backed by marquee VCs like General Catalyst, Lightspeed, and Valor.

The Role

Senior PM. New York. Reports to the Product Lead.

Insurance claims are the biggest, least AI-enabled surface area in insurance today — and we're rebuilding it from scratch. You'll own meaningful chunks of that rebuild alongside our Product Lead, working directly with adjusters, customers, and engineers to ship things that actually change how claims get handled.

This isn't a "support the roadmap" role. You'll own specific product areas outright, and be accountable for the outcomes.

We believe there’s real value in being together as a team. We come into the office 4 days per week, creating space to collaborate, move quickly, and build strong relationships with the people we work alongside.

What You'll Do
  • Own defined product areas end to end — from problem-finding to shipped solution to measured impact.

  • Talk to claims adjusters and customers constantly. You should be able to explain how a claim actually moves through the system, not just how it's supposed to.

  • Find where AI creates real leverage in your area and get it built. Prototype it, test it with real users, see if it's real — don't just pitch it.

  • Partner closely with Engineering, Sales, and Claims to turn your area into a superior customer outcome.

  • Use data to promote or kill your own ideas fast, and go all-in on what's working.

  • Work closely with the Product Lead to level up — you're building toward owning bigger, harder problems.

Who You Are
  • You've shipped product (ideally 0-1 or AI-powered) and know the gap between a slick demo and something real users depend on.

  • 3-5+ years in product, yet still in the weeds by choice, not by lack of options.

  • Relentlessly curious. You ask "why" until you actually understand it, not until it's socially acceptable to stop.

  • Bias to action, no exceptions.

  • You can read a spreadsheet and a room with equal fluency.

  • You want a Product Lead who'll push you hard and make you better fast — not a hands-off manager.

  • Even better if… you've worked in a 0-1 environment, a fast-scaling startup, or touched insurance/claims/ops-heavy industries before.

Benefits
  • Competitive Salary

  • Equity - giving you direct stake in the future of an AI-native industry leader.

  • Top-tier medical, dental, and vision insurance.

  • 401k with company match.

  • Flexible PTO and a work from home stipend.

  • A fast-paced, high-talent density team that values transparency and shipping fast.
